A Data Object resource can support a single data model (schema) that is managed by the standard operations. The data model can be a temp-table or a ProDataSet that contains one or more temp-tables, including any data relations defined for them.
When defining the data model, ensure that it meets the following requirements:
- The fields of the temp-tables do not use the RAW and RECID data types.
- If you want to use the Submit operation, use a ProDataSet and ensure that the temp-tables of the ProDataSet define before-tables to support before-imaging.
- If you want the hierarchy of the parent and child temp-tables of a ProDataSet to be retained, define the data relation between them with the NESTED option.
